Don't forget to restart all your OpenSSL binaries

The wonder of UNIX is that you can delete running binaries and loaded
shared libraries. The drawback is that you get no warning that you’re
still actually running old versions. E.g. old
heartbleed-vulnerable OpenSSL.

Server binaries are often not forgotten by upgrade scripts, but client
binaries almost certainly are. Did you restart your irssi? PostgreSQL
client? OpenVPN client?
